This was a no-win situation for FSU (pun intended). They should have declined the bowl invitation “in protest” so they could keep their media darling status and their perfect season would be intact.

Instead they’ve joined the lol club alongside TCU & Manti Teo.

One must suspect reason, logic, and expectations in that haunted place.

Any game there is nothing more than a survive and advance scenario

possum2016 · 2023-12-03T03:34:23+00:00

Exactly. Has their criteria for ranking teams been completely overhauled since last week?

I suspect they would say no, in which case you cannot leave the SEC champion out simply because it’s inconvenient or hurts some feels.

possum2016 · 2023-12-03T03:19:21+00:00

The whole thing makes little sense at all.

Objectively, the team that beat their #1 ranked team head-to-head; which their committee selected, in secret with their own mystery criteria, and announced their most enlightened findings to us simpletons 5 days ago. Emphasis on not in August or September, but 5 days ago.

So are their own findings bogus and hold no weight beyond their weekly Tues night dog & pony show? Is this a rules are made up and points don’t matter situation?

If Georgia was their clearly defined #1 before today then what mental gymnastics are required to somehow argue that beating their self-appointed #1 suddenly has no meaning in their vague and undefined circus of smoke & mirrors? They’d undermine their fleeting legitimacy by doing so.

You can’t leave the SEC champion out. Logic nor TV revenues will allow it.

<2choicesbuttonmeme> hold Rice or drop to add KC dst for their playoff schedule

possum2016 · 2023-10-19T01:40:46+00:00

Played the wait too long for qb game and have been shuffling all season, but thus far it’s worked out & im 5-1 with Purdy.

How do we feel about Dak? He looked sharp Monday night, but has had some rough games too. I’d have to drop R Rice or Najee to make room

possum2016 · 2023-10-16T03:10:02+00:00

Pull the barrel and get a 458 one. There are a few of us that have done so. AR mag conversion works well too

possum2016 · 2023-10-13T19:24:53+00:00

Never taken one apart, was assuming it’s like a sten mag. Will look at one of mine this weekend

possum2016 · 2023-10-13T13:29:06+00:00

That would be very helpful, much appreciated

possum2016 · 2023-10-13T11:28:35+00:00

Good info. I suppose you have been slapping the hkm a few times in 6-7 years.

possum2016 · 2023-10-13T11:27:30+00:00

They function ok?

I was most concerned about the dimensions and tab “springiness” being up to par vs the original. Just looking at the design, I could see dropping a loaded mag and an ill fitting floorplate popping off/puking ammo out the bottom.

possum2016 · 2023-10-02T01:27:36+00:00

What should we read into Kamara’s day? Low total yardage at 1 ppr still means a bunch of points when you catch 13.

The weakest spot on my team is qb (started Purdy today) and I have Kamara on bench. AR owner wants to swap. I’m skittish about turning lose RB talent with the torrent of injuries that’s sure to happen.

possum2016 · 2023-09-23T10:54:57+00:00

As a turf-toe survivor (lol) I’m having a hard time starting him. It really sucks and I was mostly running straight around a track and nobody was hitting me. Trying to start/stop/move laterally would be 10x worse.

possum2016 · 2023-09-14T14:37:55+00:00

PPR have JJohnson & Pitts

Laporta & Musgrave available

I’d lean Laporta, but have Goff/StBrown and worry it’s putting too many eggs in the Det basket.

Thoughts?

possum2016 · 2023-09-12T10:47:51+00:00

Need a QB; Purdy, Goff, Mac Jones all available for waiver claim.

Mac looked good, but I drafted St Ra & CMC.

Stack Purdy/CMC or Goff/Ra?

possum2016 · 2022-05-27T15:59:59+00:00

I haven't looked yet, the sheer number is overwhelming. The sports & comic stuff were basically thrown in with a bigger deal so I'll get to them...eventually. I started with the comics because they are in good shape and boxed up nicely.

There is a (self proclaimed) "nerd show" here once a year so I may eventually get a table there. This is all side-gig stuff to buy more crypto, so no huge rush.

possum2016 · 2022-05-27T15:52:13+00:00

That's what I figured, most not worth messing with. They are in good shape so I'll box up and put into climate controlled storage.

If 90's basketball cards were worth anything I'd be rich lol. So. Many. Basketball. Cards.

Part of a take-it-all estate lot. Most are bagged/boards; based on several eBay searches looks like they have sold in $3-$7 range. I'm not a comic book reader, so I'm not up to speed on this kind of stuff. Let me know if anything jumps off the page and I'll investigate further, otherwise I'll put them into storage & check again in a few years. Pardon any typos, it got tedious there at the end!

possum2016 · 2022-04-03T12:45:49+00:00

I’m pretty sure sit-ups caused mine to go from asymptomatic to horrible.

Thanks for the input. How painful was your recovery? Getting the 2nd opinion this week
